Build Equipment

Weapons

This Weapon should be used as soon as it can be obtained, it Deals massive Damage, has a knockback/stunlock effect, and will Damage most enemies through their armour due to the fact that very few mobs have Faith resistance.Note: This weapon is terribly ineffective in the Duke's archives, bring along either Fire arrows or a Fire Longsword when you get to that point.

One of the Best Mid-Game shields, if not best shields overall, 100% phys damage reduction, great stability, and just the right weight. You're gaurd will almost never break and your enemies will tire quickly.

It may look like a joke to some people, but at 1.5 weight and 91% physical damage reduction, it is one of the best early sheilds in the game. When upgraded fully it stands with the best of them. IT has good Gaurd break despite being a wooden sheild.

Another Damage Dealing Monster, couple this with Fire arrows and you've got yourself a short range bow that hits like a Train. Best used in conjunction with Pyromancies, as the range is about the same. You can switch this out for you're Talisman of choice when battling bosses.

The Ivory Talisman is an excellent Talisman that Scales very highly with you're Faith. Use it often.

This will Be you're main Damage-Dealing weapon against bosses such as Nito, Sif, and Others that do not have any predisposed resistances to fire.At +5 ascended this spell will put almost every enemy to bed with a Single Cast, best used Against Bosses like Sif, Nito, and Smough/Ornstein

You're probably wondering why anyone would equip both Lightning Spear AND Great Lightning spear at the same time. It's because they don't have a huge difference in Damage by the time you get to 50 faith, only 100 or so. Having a total of 20 charges between them means you will be a walking wall of lightning.Not Reccomended Against the 4 Kings.
